Think of this as the pearl inside the muculent guts of your article. The best place to put your "nut graph" is towards the end of the piece where it can be like a little reward for readers who've read all the way to the end. · Kill Fee: This is what you get paid when your editor decides not to run your story. Typically 20-25% of the agreed-upon fee, actors the actors kill fee is like a actors no harm/no foul. With it in hand, you can feel the rush of having written for a magazine (good job!) without having to risk anyone ever reading the piece. Plus, you can try to resell the piece to another publication or—natch—use it on your blog. (Side note: When re-pitching a killed piece, you should definitely mention that it was killed by another magazine, particularly if the new publication is a direct competitor to the magazine that killed your piece: Printing your front of the book—maybe feature well—article on designer sweatbands will be sweet, sweet revenge for the editor who runs it.) |

Chances are you won't be asked to write for the Feature Well, but you should know this term anyway. (Usage Example: "Maybe my front of the book story on designer sweatbands can be expanded into the feature well?") |
